    Were they legally entitled to "due process"?
    What type of "due process" would that be?

    in the proud american tradition, they were closed down because the company saw more profit in doing so. it's unbelievable that the republican party would even suggest that it should be any way other!

    The government screwed the bond holders and the dealers, payed off the unions.

    Case closed.......oh yeah, screwed the American tax payer.

    Didn't Mitt Romney editorialize that GM and Chrysler should go through bankruptcy? Isn't that what happened?

    And now the consequences of their reorganization under Chapter 13 bankruptcy (among them, the the closing of a number of dealerships) is Barack Obama's fault?

    Does not compute.

    I guess Mitt Romney and his GOP fanboys would have preferred a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, a dismantling of GM and Chrysler, the resultant failure of Ford Motor Company, and the resultant Great Depression. Yes, sports fans, things could have been much worse.

    But the right-wingnuts are convinced the result of such social upheaval is a good thing since it wrings out the the incompetent, infirmed, disadvantaged, and lazy (really all the same to their mind).

    The political drivel that pisses me off the most is not whether it's left or right, but whether it's fact or BS. This Romney ad is just plain bull****. It isn't true, never was true, never will be true, didn't happen.

    You'd rather they ALL closed? Hasn't Romney taken credit for how the bail out was done?

    mitt is running for president and don't you believe he would do as he campaigned?

    and the next time there are jobs on the line and a bailout needed will he let those jobs disappear?

    are you for defense industry bail outs?
